'' The Michigan Daily-Friday, October 10, 1980-Page 9 CREA TURES SIGHTED IN KENTUCKY, OHIO, PEKING Monsters shock witnesses MAYSVILLE, Ky. (UPI)-Anna Mae Saunders, still awed by the sight of 0 "Bigfoot," said yesterday she doesn't want another look at the 7-foot creature covered with long, white hair she is cer- tain she saw last weekend outside the home of her son-in-law in rural Mason County. "I just hope that thing doesn't come back," said Saunders, 60. "I NEVER SAW anything like it in my life. It just looked like a big white, fuzzy thing standing there on the porch. I never saw it's face; it was above the 7- foot-high door," she added. Saunders' son-in-law, Charles Fulton, said the creature had one of his roosters when he opened the door, but either dropped or threw it as it jumped off the porch. He described the so-called "Bigfoot" as having long, white hair with "glowing animal-like eyes." Fulton, 39, went outside and saw it standing bet- ween the house and an outbuilding. He fired two shots with a .22-caliber pistol at the creature, but they seemed to have no effect, he said. SAUNDERS SAID there had been similar sightings recently in Aberdeen, Ohio, just across the Ohio River from Mason County. Robert Gardiner, 40, a big game hun- ter for 20 years, is convinced he has found the lair of Bigfoot in the hills of southern Ohio near McArthur. He urged hunters to hold their fire if they see him. Gardiner said an analyst, who examined blood samples taken from a tree in Wayne National Forest in Vinton County, described the samples as "ape- like humanoid blood." HOWEVER, Gardiner said he will have the blood analyzed again to get a second opinion. Meanwhile in Peking, more sightings were reported yesterday of China's Loch Ness-like monster living in a flooded crater of a dormant volcano in what was called a new "scientific rid- dle." Two personnel of a weather station on a peak above Lake Tien Zhi were walking along the edge of the four- square-mile lake Aug. 23 when the "monster" suddenly rose out of the water about 30 yards from them, the Guangming Ribao newspaper said yesterday. THE WEATHER officials said the creature towered almost 15 feet above the surface. It had a large buffalo-like head with a duck beak-shaped snout. The dark head of the creature streaked across the mirror-like surface of the lake rapidly like a speedboat, leaving a wake at least 300 feet long, one weather official said. Both weatherman, petrified at the sight of the mysterious creature, star- ting yelling and shouting in ex- citement. They fired two shots in panic, but missed the creature which quickly submerged into the frigid waters of the crater. In another sighting, Peking writer Lui Jia, 65, said he and six friends were watching the sunrise on the morning of Aug. 21 when the creature appeared. "I could see it very clearly," Lui said.

DURING THE press conference, Spitzberg said higher tuition rates and competitive entrance requirements would push students towards out-of- state schools. "These students may never return to Michigan," he said, "which will be a tremendous loss in human resources for the state." If professors are laid off, "the remaining faculty will be so concerned with solidifying their own positions, they may neglect their teaching fun- ctions," he said. The fact that the Tisch proposal received enough support to earn a place on the ballot, Spitzberg explained, may already have discouraged high quality faculty from accepting positions at the University. "WHO WANTS TO take a job knowing they may be gone in a few years?" he asked. Spitzberg also said that the Univer- Experts say LA smog to * lift; illness continues From AP and UPI LOS ANGELES-Medical authorities reported an increase yesterday in the number of people troubled by respiratory ailments as smog and fog choked the Los Angeles basin for the 11th consecutive day in the area's worst October siege of air pollution in 10 years. But forecasters said there could be "significant improvement" in the next few days because of changing weather patterns that are expected to blow the smog away. FORECASTS FOR today called for eight first-stage health alerts in the four-county area, compared to 24 such alerts yesterday, according to the South Coast Air Quality Management District. An Air Quality Management District spokesman said the layer of brown haze that has kept contaminants bottled up in the basin to the discomfort of some 10 million people was lifting. The high pressure system in the basin is breaking up, permitting the smog to dissipate and Saturday should be the best day in about two weeks for breathing and normal physical ac- tivities, Jeff Shenkel, AQMD spokesman, predicted. sity is in a period of "retrenchment" and that it is important the faculty utilize the available mechanisms to have tinput in decisions concerning program cutbacks. He added that enrollment figures should not be the only criteria used in determining what programs to ,cut, even though legislators usually place these criteria above others. "If programs are cut, and professors leave the state, that will hurt Michigan's industry," Irving ex- plained. "The University's research function to local industry is vital, and has to be an important part of judging the quality of programs. "A university can be destroyed very quickly," he continued, "And what's destroyed will take decades to rebuild." U: I BLUE NOTE.... and all that JAZZbw NOW OPEN its E.
